Step 4: Moving Day
It can be a hectic 24 hours, but there are some things you can do to make it easier.
Have tools handy for breaking down beds and appliances. Move valuables (jewelry, legal documents, family photos & collections) yourself - don't send them with the moving company. Make sure you have a complete Home Inventory of all your possessions. If you are using a professional mover, check the inventory list and make sure you agree with the condition of items. Get a copy of the list for your records. Give every room a final once over. Don't forget to check the basement, yards, attic, garage and closets. Turn off the water heater and lower the thermostat. Get the name of the driver and give him your contact information. Also review directions to the new. Have the final payment for the movers and money for a tip (if satisfied with the job, about $20/mover is recommended.)
